You Were Always There...

You Were Always There Whenever I Needed You

You were always there whenever I needed you
With simple things that to someone else
Would have meant nothing, but to me they meant the world
You were always there whenever I needed you
Listening in silence to the worries of my day
You were always there whenever I needed you
To put a smile on my face, when it was hard
To find a reason to go on fighting, to go on living
Like a lighthouse on the highest rock, you guided me
And like an anchor in my life you held me tight
To save me from the storms of the roughest seas
If now I've sailed to far from your safe port,
Then the tides of life will soon return me
For with your gentle voice you helped me find
A truer course to what was hidden deep inside me
And so with these few words, I thank you
For always being there whenever I needed you
